CS100M/CIS121/EAS121:
Academic Integrity
Notes
- The word you in the following statements refers to the phrase, you and your partner(s),
if an assignment allows you to work with more than one person and that you have chosen to do so.
- The rules contained herein represent our adaptation of the
Department of Computer Science Code
and the Cornell University Code,
by which you must also abide.
Doing Homework
- You may discuss work with other students. Generally, discussing an algorithm, approach, or general form of code is
acceptable. However, cooperation should never involve other students possessing a copy of all, or a portion of, your work,
regardless of format.
- You may not remove your partner's name from an assignment unless you do not use each other's work.
- Unless otherwise posted, you must follow the rules for partners, which are listed in the
Syllabus.
- When you are allowed to use additional resources (such as textbook examples and supplied code), you must credit those sources.
Submitting Homework
- When applicable, the programs and other work that you submit must generate the indicated output and/or results.
- Your name must not appear on more than one submission.
Submitting Exams
- All exams are closed book, unless noted otherwise.
- You may not assist or receive help from any other student during an exam.
Contacting Students and Staff
- Contact a member of the course staff immediately if you suspect a violation of the Code of Academic Integrity.
- If you are suspected of a violation, we will send an e-mail notification. If your on-line listing shows a local address, we will
mail an additional hardcopy of the notification. Refer to CIT's website
http://whoiam.cornell.edu/ for updating your local address.
Penalties
- We assign penalties on a case-by-case basis.
- We hold you responsible in case of a violation.
- We may lower your grade, fail you in CS211, request Cornell University
disciplinary action, or apply a permanent mark on your transcript.
